Hi again,
The post i was referring to (below) was the wrong one. The correct one is there now.
Best,
Jesper

Subject: SASA calculation using periodic images?
Hello all,
I want to calculate the solvent accessible surface area in a system with many monomers that aggregate. The aggregation occurs across the periodic images and therefore the wrapping of the system gets a little complicated.
Is there a way to make the SASA script/plugin in vmd take the periodic images into account when calculating the SASA of certain surfaces?
I found the below post on the VMD list from March of 2010, but I haven’t seen any changes to the SASA script since. Does anybody have an updated version that includes the periodic images?
I am more than willing to make the code change myself – but I am not sure how complicated it would be…
Best regards,
Jesper

I hope to implement handling of periodic cells in the SASA calculation, but it I haven't started working on it yet.
